Definitely well earned given the effort you've come across to have put in! Enjoy the break, and well done!

Mo Matadar was the appointments officer for North West Counties (Step 5-6), then left for a new role - Referee Manager I believe. Not sure if this is actually filling the role that Dan Meeson was in.

Was having this discussion the other day; in that by forcing out Level 4s who are often older, through the new timed gates etc, we might see ourselves in a position where we lose a lot of experience in the game. I've run the line for many L4s this season, and some absolutely brilliant young...

While I can’t dispute this, it has to be said that ‘football’ isn’t exactly happen with any proposed rule changes either. There is a wide spread concensus of ‘leave the game alone’, evident especially after the proposed introduction of SinBins. Personally, having done tournaments which utilise...

Anyhow, congrats on promotions guys!

I judged from the wording that the OP was aware of this, but it's spot on. If you're looking for promotion, don't throw that away for an easily avoidable misconduct charge.

It’s not too likely, as they’re not seeking to appoint Observers/Match Day Coaches as the marking window is generally closed. That being said, is it a risk this theoretical referee wants to take?

Have just read over the changes, and a couple of interesting ones. Non-deliberate handball, which is DOGSO now being sanctioned with a caution in certain situations is a good change for the game, but will certainly create sone confusion! Tidying up SinBins to lead to a straight red is a...

Eek! Haaland searches for the contact, feels it, and goes down. Never a penalty, never a review.

Yep, I’m aware it’s pretty much solely NW! Live right on the border of the north of Cheshire, which was your old hunting grounds, so very similar

The very line I used when in a pre season friendly a player turned and said “**** off you c*nt, I’ll f*cking have you. f*cking tw*t”. How friendly.

Get them in with captains? Never heard that before. Before KO it’s a very simple, “ins and outs, same as every weeks. Cheers mate.” Never had an issue

Hi! Good points above about passion, and if something is a close decision, there will always be protests. The best you can do it outline to captains at KO that CARs are part of your officiating team, and mandate they are equally respected. If a player decides to have a pop at your CAR...

Not a single comment about the officials since about min. 70. Don’t think they could’ve asked for much more - well done all round

And a pretty nailed on caution for Mainoo too

First penalty shout for Madley after 1min. Foul on Haaland. Not given on-field and no review recommended by Oliver. Correct decision without a doubt for me.

I'd imagine in an attempt to protect the officials from future hassle. While you can find the officials by going through the appointments, others such as the AR Coach won't be visible, and I doubt will want much further association with the incident. As ever, there will be other people who think...

Typical. The backlog of cases by NSCP is heard in April-June, then the time based suspensions have no effect for 2months at least.

One by one, the game becomes a better place

Thanks. Thought it was the case, but wanted to clarify. I’ll enjoy selling accidental handling on the line, I’m sure.
